“Having a treadmill gives me a sense of freedom around my training and is a great way to remove some of the guilt that comes with long distance training around family life. There is always a way to fit a run in and yet still be available at the drop of a hat if needed. I have never had a bluetooth treadmill before and being able to hook up to Zwift and other apps is fantastic. By having music or zwift I can use that part of my brain that switches off for pushing the pace instead. Or, if it’s an easy run I’m after I can watch something and just zone out and save the mental grind for a day when I’m doing a session. I know that running outdoors will never be replaced by a treadmill but the flexibility, difference and fun it offers make it another valuable tool in the training toolkit.”
